PROGRAMMA/CONTENUTO

The course is divided into four main chapters:

1. Introduction to transportation systems and their relation with the surrounding environment
2. Transportation systems supply modelling: link, nodes and network models
3. Transportation systems demand modelling: users’ characteristics and choice models (destination, mode and path choices)
4. Transportation systems supply and demand interactions: equilibrium assignment and dynamic assignment
